alkyne carbon atoms are ___ hybridized
|
sp
|
|
The triple bond of an alkyne consists of one ____ and two _____
|
one sp-sp sigma bond and two -p pi bonds
|
|
What are the two best methods of alkyne synthesis?
|
alkylation of an acetylide anion with a primary alkyl halide ad the twofold elimination of HX from a vicinal dihalide
|
|
The chemistry of alkynes is dominated by _____
|
electrophilic addition reactions, similar to those of alkenes
|
|
Alkynes react with HBr and HCl to yield ______
|
vinylic halides
|
|
Alkynes react with Br2 and Cl2 to yield ______
|
1,2-dihalides (vicinal dihalides)
|
|
Alkynes can be hydrated by reaction with _____ in the presence of ____
|
aqueous sulfuric acid in the presence of mercury (II) catalyst
|
|
Alkynes can be hydrated by reaction with aqueous sulfuric acid in the presence of ercury (II) catalys The reaction leads to an intermediate ____ that immediate ____
|
enol, that immediately isomerizes to yield a ketone tautomer.
|
|
By Marki's rule, a methyl ketone is produced from a ____
|
terminal alkyne
|
|
By anti-Marki, hydroboration/oxidation of a terminal alkyne yields ___
|
an aldehyde
|
|
Alkynes can be reduced to yield
|
alkenes and alkanes
|
|
explain complete reduction
|
Complete reduction f the triple bond over a palladium hydrgenation catalyst yileds a alkane
|
|
explain partial reduction of alkynes
|
Partial reduction by catalytic hydrogenation over a lindlar catalyst yields a CIS alkene. Ruduction o the alkyne with lithium in ammonia yields a trans alkene.
|
|
terminal alkynes are ___ acidic
|
weakly
|
|
Because terminal alkynes are weakly acidic, the alkyne hydrogen can be removed by
|
a strong base such as Na+-H2 to yield an acetylide anion
|
|
an acetylide anion acts as a___
|
nuclephile and can dispace a halide ion from a primary alkyl halide in an alkylation reaction
|
|
acetylide anions are more stable than either alkyl anions or vinylic anions because
|
their negative charge is in a hybrid orbital with 50%s character, allowing the charge to be loser to the nucleus.
